All raw images unsupported from 20D (.CRW or .DNG)?

Hello all,
I just imported 5,486 picture files in two formats: .JPG and .DNG, taken with two cameras, a Sony DSC-P10 point and shoot, and (the great majority) a Canon EOS 20D. The DNG files were converted from their .CR2 source files.
Aperture is showing 4,670 of the DNG files - all of them - as unsupported image format. I re-imported 100 of the original .CR2 raw files, and indeed, I get the same result.
I can view the imported files in Preview and iPhoto just fine. Adobe Camera Raw 2.4 (Photoshop 8) has no problems with them. However, despite the fact that the 20D is apparently supported, Aperture is not working with the 20D files in their original .CR2 or the converted .DNG. I'm at a loss.
Interestingly enough, when doing a file import, Aperture properly shows all the thumbnails and will stack them as well. Actually, it's not quite properly; the thumbnails are actually square and not auto-rotated, instead of the usual 3:2 or 2:3 aspect ratio.
Does anyone have any thoughts about what I could to, possibly, to restore these photos to work with Aperture and to be fully functional?
Thanks,
Doug

Hello again,
This is a related thread, it would seem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1261853&#1261853
It suggested quitting Aperture and restarting it. I did this. Now, previously imported images can be viewed. It takes about 10-30 seconds after selecting an image which was previously an "unsupported image format" image and shows up as a gray square to show a preview. Unfortunately, the preview is not properly rotated - it's always in landscape format despite the rotation hints in the file.
Importing a few more images imported properly, preview and rotation. I imported 7 .CR2 files into a new project and it was fine. However, I switched back to my previous (broken) project and then back to the working project, and my photos have disappeared. The sidebar still shows (7) versions in the project, but selecting the project shows no thumbnails nor pictures in the list view either. That's even more mysterious. Quitting and restarting Aperture did not bring those 7 photos back. They are in there, in the .aplibrary, but the UI doesn't show them. Indeed, after quitting and restarting, now the "were being fixed by clicking on them and waiting" images are back to permanently unsupported image format. So, I've not really gotten any further.
Very frustrating.
Thanks,
Doug

    Hi

    Hi, you'll need to use MemoryImageSource.
    You read each RGB triple and add it to a pixel[].
    Heres the roughg idea.
    Hope that helps.

  • Not all RAW images are imported

    I have CS5 and use a Lumix FZ150.  The native format of the RAW images on the camera is RW2.  When I try to open these in CS5, some are opened some do not.  The pics that open, open in Camera RAW.  The others give me an error message, that my camera is not supported?
    Any ideas as to what the problem is.

    The FZ150 RW2 files should open in ACR 6.5 thru ACR 6.7 for CS5.   If you are not use ACR 6.7 you might try that, first, in case there was some issue that was corrected in later versions.  
    If you are already using that version, then the files may be corrupt.  It could be a bad memory card, bad card reader/cable or even a bad hard-drive on the computer.  You might try transferring the bad files, again, from the memory card, perhaps using a different method (camera-connected-cable vs card-reader) and see if they work a second time.  If not, then the memory card may be bad.  If the files transfer ok a second time, then something besides the memory card is bad.
    If nothing you do works, then perhaps the camera is writing the files in a different mode that Adobe doesn’t support.  I am not familiar with your camera to know what that might be, but some cameras write smaller raw formats or HDR raw formats and maybe Adobe doesn’t decode everything.
    If you can’t figure it out, then you can try posting a bad file, here, so others can take a look.  The way to do that would be to upload the raw file (or preferably a ZIP of the raw file) to a large-file hosting service like www.dropbox.com or www.skydrive.com or www.wetransfer.com or www.yousendit.com and then post the public download link in a reply, here.

  • Raw image support from LR4.3 to CS4

    I upgraded to LR4.3 and CS4.  When I open a raw image in CS4 from LR4.3, the image quality is horrible.  A message appeared that I need camera raw plugin 7.3, however, this is not available for CS4.  Is there a solution to this problem or do I need to upgrade to CS6?

    You updated but I'll post the following for anyone else who has the same question in future.
    LR 4.3 is equivalent to Camera Raw 7.3. If LR and Ps aren't communicating well, you can export an image file from LR then open that into Ps. For 16-bit, choose TIFF with ZIP compression unless you don't mind an enormous file. 16-bit PSD is another option but its Background layer has no compression and will be the same huge size as an uncompressed TIFF.

    Sean,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    In addition to any update to Aperture, have you also installed the update for Camera RAW 2.7? It is the update that includes the D300s -- it updates iPhoto as well as Aperture. It was released in December, and distributed via Software Update.

  • How to open Raw images (NRW) from Nikon Coolpix p7800 with Photoshop elements 12?

    I am not able to view/edit my images directly form card reader into PhotoShop Elements 12.  This is why I am looking at this software. Need help. Viewed Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras  but do not see how to download the plug in? 

    From the page you linked to, you need ACR 8.3 to open P7800 raw files.  You probably just need to update your Photoshop Elements using Help / Updates.  If that doesn’t work, then at least check what version of ACR plug-in you have using Help / About Plug-in / Camera Raw in case your ACR is new enough and something else is wrong.

  • Automatically export to JPEG from RAW images

    RAW images are preferred form of shooting for many photographers. And, Lightroom is great at managing and developing these images. However, we increasingly use/view these images outside Lightroom and away from the PC where we do most of the development. For example, I use a DLNA server which shows off my entire image collection to big screen television (which can act as a DLNA client). The same DLNA server is used to send images to our smartphones (my wife loves to show all kid pictures anywhere she - without having to carry the pictures on the phone).
    Most other applications that use these images, do not work on RAW images and JPEG images must be exported manually from Lightroom. This becomes increasingly difficult to manage and keep track of while developing RAW images. How many RAW images need to be exported? How many images did I touch since the last time I exported them?
    Currently, I am using the following process to manage this:
    1. I created a smartlist which contains images that are edited after "a particular date".
    2.  I select all images in this smartlist, and use Lightroom3's export  function to export them all as JPEG, to the same folder as original.
    3. Once the export is completed, I modify the smartlist to change the "particular date" to today's date.
    I plan to repeat this procedure every so often (once a week or so).
    It would be great if Lightroom had a feature such that it always keeps "JPEGs exported" for all RAW images (with the latest development settings of course). This could be a process that could occur in the background or at a user-specified time/event (e.g. when one closes Lightroom). User should be able to specify where the exported JPEG images should be put to and with what name (I prefer in the same folder as RAW but other users may have other preferences). User should be able to select if this is only done for RAW images or also for JPEG and other formats (in which case, should the exported image override the original or not). The exported images should be (optionally) automatically included in the Lightroom catalogue and stacked with the original RAW image.
    Mainly, the entire process should be completely transparent to the user. A collection of JPEG images - corresponding to the latest development settings for the RAW images - should be always available.

    I've heard many others raising the issue of an auto-jpeg feature - kinda like auto-write xmp, except auto-write jpeg.
    I agree this would be nice, obviously some sort of "stability" check would be needed so it isnt constantly writing jpegs as you edit. Lightroom employs a form of this already for the xmp - meaning it doesn't update xmp every brush stroke, but accumulates several strokes before updating, so its more efficient...
    If you could define multiple jpegs to keep - with the raws, or a separate tree - even better. That would obsolete all the tree output plugins and publishers.
    The publishing feature was intended to fill this need (albeit manual only), but it suffers from the inability to publish to original directory, and/or an external tree.
    I'd like to see a manual mode too, that accompanies a new "Done for now" function - so when you say "Done for now", it saves xmp, jpeg(s), snapshot, and optionally locks the file so unapproved changes can no longer happen to it. Then if you could define multiple "done for now" presets that include initiating publish service and exports, then the work-flow becomes: 1.import, 2.edit, 3.done for now - and thats it (maybe repeat 2 + 3 in the future). i.e. no more manually initiating the exports, publish services, snapshots, saving of xmp, ..., and whatever else you do when you're done.
    In the mean time, I may make some of this part of an up-n-coming "Sidekick" app + plugin combo when I get to it.
    Presently, I dont use publishing services, and I have ExportManager to consolidate exports (which includes TreeSync), so my workflow is: 1.import, 2.edit, 3.done for now (save xmp+snapshot, and lock via ChangeManager), 4. initiate consolidated exports...

  • My cs4 won't open raw image from my Canon 5D II.  What is the solution?

    My CS4 opens raw images from my 40D with no problem.  However, when I try to open raw images from my new 5D II, it says it is "not the right kind of document".  Why is this?  Aren't all RAW images the same?  What is the difference between the RAW image in my 40D, and my 5D II?  Is there a solution to this?

  • Raw images all blank

    I have managed masters in Aperture.  Last night went to print an image and received message that "Versions with unavailable originals cannot be printed".  Then all Raw images started to blank out - the image and thumbnail are black. Some are marked as Image Format unavailable.
    The metadata is still there and the image count is the same.
    It is only RAW images that seem to be "lost".
    This has only happened in the last day or so.  I have not attempted to move images or library.
    I have tried to File>Locate Referenced Files - message back is that selection has no referenced files.
    Tried File>Relocate Original - didnt seem to do anything.
    Tried Photos> Reprocess Originals - message back none need reprocessing
    I am using a mid-2010 iMac, Aperture ver 3.4.1, OS X 10.8.2...and am not particularly familiar with Mac as have only been using for the last couple of years and use mainly for photos.
    Appreciate any help...do I just need to reinstate from vault or time machine...or is there some issue with RAW processing?

    It looks like you are having the rare problem, that Aperture has lost the connection to its original image files, that are managed, and only for the raw images.
    There is no built-in option to reconnect managed originals. If you are lucky, this is only a problem of wrong permissions or some glitch in the library, that can be fixed by the library first aid. Try the first aid tools:
    Aperture 3 User Manual: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Aperture Library
    and start with "Repair permissions", then "Repair Database", finally "Rebuild Database".
    or is there some issue with RAW processing?
    What camera do you have? Some posters have reported, that their Nikon D800 images are no longer recognized, see this thread.
    After repairing your library, try to import new rwa images, and see, if the problem is only with the previous imports.

  • I am getting this message as I try to upload raw images from my file folders to my PSE

    I am getting this message as I try to upload raw image files from my file/folders into PSE what do I do to get PSE to accept the raw files?
    "Nothing was imported. The file(s) or folder(s) selected to import did not contain any supported file types"  What do I do.  Just to let you guys know I am able to upload all JPEG files that are already in my files into PSE but not the raw photos.  Obviously I want to keep them raw in order to have more control over the outcome of the picture.

    The  camera I am using is the Canon Rebel T3I, the PSE version is elements 9, and I don't know what version of raw converter I may or may not be using.  Where do I find the version of raw converter?

  • Printing RAW-images from Lightroom 1.3

    When I print RAW-images directly from Lightroom 1.3 (to a Canon Pixma 8500) I get a distinct pink bias in the red colors. The same happens with exported TIFF-file in Prophoto RGB-format. I suppose that's the color space also used with the RAW-format so that's probably what's causing the problem. Printing TIFF-exports in Adobe RGB works fine. Is there a straight forward way to avoid this problem and print the correct colors from RAW/TIFF-Prophoto format?

    Are you calibrating your screen using a hardware profiler? If not, you cannot possibly expect the colors to print as you see them on the screen. Next, how are you printing? managed by Lightroom or Managed by printer? The color space of the original (RAW does not have a color space BTW) is immaterial in principle. If you are printing managed by Lightroom, you need to absolutely make sure you turn off color management in the printer driver and that you choose the right profile for the paper you are printing on. Most of the times either of those is what is done wrong. If you are printing managed by driver, you should be aware that some drivers are not correctly written to color manage. I doubt the driver for that printer is though.
    >The same happens with exported TIFF-file in Prophoto RGB-format.
    How are your printing this? The space of the source should not matter in a color managed workflow. So if you use something like photoshop, there should be no difference whatsoever between printing a ppRGB TIFF and a adobeRGB tiff as both will get converted to the printer profile.

  • Transferring 15GB-20GB of RAW images from PC to Mac

    Transferring 15GB-20GB of RAW images from PC to Mac
    Hi,
    I have a 12 MP camera. I can only recover 40% approx. of the deleted RAW image files from my Sandisk memory card. I want to try mwww.cnwrecovery.com which recovers fragmented files, but only for PCs. I have a Mac.
    I also want to make sure I get the original large files - or close to that, which has not been the case with 2 out of 4 recovery software I already tried (they yielded files in the 200KB-600KB range.)
    I can use a friend's PC but technical questions arise, i.e.:
    a) which media is large enough to use for transferring 15GB-20GB, b) formatting of the media (PC/Mac), c) step-by-step precautions to take when transfering images from media to Mac (formatting, transfer location, etc.)
    Apparently, according to Apple support, I have to proceed carefully and in a specific order.
    I can use thoughtful and detailed feedback from you guys. Thanks a lot.
    Raphael

    It should be easy. Just copy the files to four or five DVDs that are identified for use with Macs and PCs. Then copy the DVD contents into a folder on the Mac using the Finder. Burning DVDs is slow but it gives you physical backup of the images that is very comforting when recovering from a disaster.
    Another way is to FTP the files via Internet using one of the large-files sites but that too is slow. IMO DVDs are the way to go. It is possible to have format issues but unlikely if you use quality modern media that are identified as Mac and PC. Just try it first.
    When you Finder-copy to the Mac select the files you want, do not just grab the whole DVD as one chunk. You do not need any Win directory files or whatever non-image-files that may be there. Beware of malware any time you touch a PC. If anyting asks you to "install" something on the Mac side that needs your password, do not do it; copying image files requires no installation.
    Good luck!

  • Unable to open Camera Raw 6.7 from Bridge CS5

    I am unable to view the RAW images that were taken on my D90 in Bridge CS5. They show up blank with the Camera Raw logo in the center and "NEF" in the upper left hand corner. This is the first time this problem has occured because I was (and still) able to view RAW images taken from my old D40. I have tried everything including updating my Camera Raw to version 6.7.0.339, but to no avail! I have no error messages, btw. I am operating Bridge and Photoshop CS5 on Windows 7 (32-bit). I found this thread, and it seems extremely helpful, but it's for Mac users: http://forums.adobe.com/message/2842306

    All you need to do now is to refresh (purge) the cache.  Everything is fine with your install.
    That the right version of the ACR Plug-in is installed in the correct location is proven by the screen shot of the "About Camera Raw" splash screen.  It would not show up in "About Plug-in" if it were not in the correct location.
    I also take it only one instance of Camera Raw shows up in your list. 
    I see absolutely nothing in your first screen shot that would prevent you from sliding your mouse over to the "Purge Cache for This Folder" menu command and then letting go of the mouse.  That's all it takes.  That menu item does not appear to be grayed out.  The only thing that is not clear is whether you do in fact have a folder selected.
    The reason you see the generic NEF icons without preview is that the cache for that folder was built when you still had an older version of ACR that did not support your camera.  That's why the cache needs to be purged (refreshed) now.
    Humor me for a second and perform the following experiment:  Select all the generic icons you see in the Content panel in Bridge and right-click on them in order to call the "Purge Cache for Selection" command you had discovered earlier and mentioned in a previous post.  You should see the icons turn into thumbnails before your eyes.
    Now you can just use the "Purge Cache for this Folder" command on any other folder containing generic NEF icons without having to select the individual icons at all.
    If you already have a bunch of folders harboring generic NEF icons, go ahead and use the central Purge Cache command in Bridge preferences to purge the entire Bridge cache on your disk in one fell swoop.
    Hope this helps. Let me know.
